Isbey v. Crews
North Carolina Court of Appeals
284 S.E.2d 534 (1981)
- Written by John Yi, JD
Facts
Crews (defendant) leased office space from Isbey (plaintiff) for a five-year term. According to the lease, the premises could not be used for any purpose other than as a doctor’s office and for a dialysis unit without the plaintiff’s consent. Further, Crews could not assign or sublease any part of the premises or alter it without Isbey’s consent. Slightly less than four years into the lease, Crews vacated the premises and sought to sublease to a medical supply company. Isbey refused to consent to the sublease and sought to recover one-month’s unpaid rent. The lower court granted summary judgment in favor of Isbey.
